The other day I spotted a very interesting listing on the local classifieds site, this is one of the seller's photos:

He had some more photos in better quality so I was able to identify at least the following cards:
- Gravis Ultrasound MAX
- SB16 CT2230
- Roland SCB-7 MIDI daughterboard mounted to the SB16
- Some Tseng Labs ISA VGA card, I suspect some sort of ET4000
- Diamond Voodoo 1
- Creative Dxr2 DVD decoder card
- Some Adaptec ISA SCSI controller
- A pretty beaten up ASUS Striker Extreme motherboard
- Matrox G400
- Sound Blaster X-Fi
The other cards seem to me more or less useless.
The GUS seems to be in good condition, the SB16 has at least a few bent pins on the CD-ROM headers and the Voodoo has at least one cap knocked off. The G400 has a damaged heatsink and the X-Fi had the heatsink ripped off. SCB-7 looks OK too, but the seller didn't have any hi-res photos of it so we'll see.
It's in the mail now and should arrive later this week, needless to say I am pretty excited 😄
If everything works, this will be a huge upgrade for my 486 machine!
In a different listing I spotted some interesting parts, too:
The attachment 2020-09-06 16.01.18.png is no longer available
- Gainward Dragon 3000 Voodoo2 12MB
- Leadtek Winfast A400 GeForce 6800 AGP (sadly, it's the small 128MB non-GT, non-Ultra version)
- GeForce 4 Ti4200 (these Medion-branded cards are not rare at all, but always nice to have another GF4Ti around)
The seller had some more stuff he wanted to get rid of, so I will get some DDR1 1GB modules, some SDR ECC RAM (1GB modules, too!) and a few hard disks. Everything was very reasonably priced.
